Costumer Evaluations

I haven't run any speed tests, but this drive seems to write and read as quick as any other usb stick I've employed. I'm glad about that, due to the fact the cause I purchased it was to move 11GB HD video files about and it does that admirably.

Thoughts you, the initial thing I did was to cost-free up space by formatting the drive, therefore getting rid of the preinstalled software program - I would assume that things would also be slower if I hadn't performed that.

I am moving to a new computer soon and wanted to park a copy of My Documents and Favourites out of harm's way. I read the evaluations kindly left about this drive by other many people, for which a number of thanks! I noticed the assistance about uninstalling UR Drive and /or deleting superfluous computer software.

I am somewhat nervous of mechanical devices, but it was recognized instantly and became "Ur Drive F". I opened it and wondered what attainable harm can occur if I perfect-click on it. I got "format" among other possibilities. Left-clicking that, I got a stern message that must I proceed I would be deleting a lot of computer software.

"Honestly?!" stated I, rather pleasantly shocked, and proceeded. Now it appears as KINGSTON DRIVE F, performs immaculately, and when I click "eject" it becomes "a removable disk". Best!

If I could possibly be allowed to contribute a slightly frivolous point with a critical intent: like several other contributors before me, I noticed how pretty TINY this USB Drive is - on my desk it could and would conveniently disappear without having trace caught in some papers, as to what will grow to be of it mixed with a bunch of keys at the bottom of my handbag, I dread to assume.

Staring at it with my Art Design hat on, I saw that it looks just like a stylish piece of contemporary jewellry, i.e. a pendant. So I got one particular of those black silk cords people today use for handmade pendants these days, removed a single end of the effortless clasp, threaded the black silk cord through the tiny ear (you have to encourage it a bit, but if I can do it, you can do it), replaced the clasp end and TA-DA! Firstly, with that cord on, there is no way it gets lost on my desk. Secondly, it looks really Matrix with a black T-shirt or polo neck. Now I am waiting for the 1st techie lad who says, "Hey, lady, do you know what that factor is?" In Mid-Wales we appear forward to rather simple joys...
